We didn't pull together. We basically tried to play individually and in the game of volleyball, it takes everyone pulling together to be successful. These girls dug deep within themselves to win this invitational ... All in all, this match was played hard, we suffered a few miscues, miscommunication, and a little bit of not moving, but as always these girls talked amongst themselves and worked through these problems and success is what came out of this hard work.
More Quotes from Joyce Bickers:
We came out in game one a little sluggish, trading off serves with New Washington. We missed too many serves tonight. I think it might be the most serves missed this season. In game two, things were much the same ... (and) game three we pretty much fell flat. There was no communication whatsoever on the court. Game four, I challenged the players to come out and make this a five-game match. I told the girls that we needed to move, communicate, and make smart plays. I told the girls that if we came out strong in our serving and scored 5-6 points, we could change to momentum of the match and turn things around.Joyce Bickers
Our first conference game and we didn't play that bad, but we were timid, especially in the third game. I saw positives throughout the match. Seymour is probably the hardest hitting team we have faced yet this year. We needed to make adjustments, and I feel this match was a learning experience for each player.

I was probably most disappointed in our play during the second game. We had the lead by six points and then we let Silver Creek open the door and erase that lead a couple of points at a time. Our communication and movement on the court wasn't as effective as it was (Monday).

These players have worked hard to make this season successful and continue to work hard. They don't like to lose and now they have tasted victory. We just need to continue to work hard each and every day whether it be in practice or in our next match.

The Lady Cubs remembered they were a team and that they needed to work towards that common goal. These players never cease to amaze me. They are a hard working bunch, on and off the bench.

There are things we need to work on and we have the rest of the season to work on these areas. Our focus is towards sectionals. If we learn something from each game that we play, we have accomplished something and we just need to implement that into our every day play. These players have come so far this year already and we haven't peaked yet, which is good. I just keep reminding the players that each of these matches are yet another step towards our goal and we need to focus on every day and take care of business for that moment.

Anger becomes limiting, restricting. You can't see through it. While anger is there, look at that, too. But after a while, you have to look at something else.

Government experts have estimated that ANWR reserves would only provide enough oil for six months of U.S. oil consumption. In addition, the oil industry itself has estimated that it would take 10 years to bring this oil to the market.
